Summary

Yujin Gakuen Elementary School is a K–5 Japanese language-immersion magnet serving 216 students at 2855 Lincoln St in Eugene, Oregon, part of Eugene School District 4J. In 2025–26 it ranked 30th of 709 Oregon elementary schools — the 96th percentile, 5 stars — its best standing on record and the peak of a decade-long climb from the 71st percentile in 2015–16. That far outpaces its district's own standing (23rd of 141).

Proficiency is far above district and state: 72.6% in English language arts, 71.4% in math, and 68.6% in science, with math and science at roughly 2.2 times the state average. Results strengthen at higher grades — 5th-grade ELA at 82.9% and 5th-grade science at 68.6%, both the highest among nearby schools. The two district immersion magnets dominate the neighborhood: Yujin Gakuen and Charlemagne French Immersion Elementary School rank 1st and 2nd of 11 nearby schools, and no other neighbor tops the 91st percentile, while McCornack Elementary School, Cesar Chavez Elementary School, Camas Ridge Community Elementary, and Village School sit between the 34th and 62nd percentiles. Every nearby school enrolls a similar share of low-income students — roughly 63% to 68% — yet ELA proficiency ranges from 36.8% to 79.4%, a gap that reflects schooling rather than intake.

The strongest evidence of the school's teaching is its Low Socio-Economic Status subgroup ranking — 6th of 595 schools statewide (99th percentile) in 2022–23 — though that subgroup has not been reported in the two most recent years. Chronic absenteeism was 22.4% in 2024–25, about 11 points below district and state, but roughly double its own 10.2% in 2018–19. At 216 students, a 13.5-to-1 ratio, and $25,286 per student, Yujin runs smaller classes than most neighbors, though Charlemagne posts similar or better results on about $4,200 less per student. The jump in free/reduced-price lunch eligibility from 42.4% to 63.0% likely reflects a reporting change, and one nearby school's 4th-grade ELA figure is suppressed by the state for privacy.
